AN IMPORTANT LITERARY EVENT.
THE DETECTIVE AND THE NOVELIST.


Such a combination of authors as has
been engaged to write new story, which
the FREE PRESS will publish exclusively
in Vermont, will prove an epoch in the
literary world. There has been got to-
gether a man with his brain teeming
with stories of intrigue and adventure in
which he has played an active part, and a
famous novelist The man of adventure
lays his stories and his diaries before the
man of letters. and we are given story,
which for thrilling incident and literary
style has seldom, If ever, been equalled.
This unique combination consists of Inspec-
tor Thomas Byrnes, Chief of the Detective
Bureau of New York, and Julian Haw-
thorne, one of the most popular novelists
of the day. Dumas, Dickens or Charles
Reade would have given worlds for
such material as Inspector Byrnes has
furnished Mr.. Hawthorne. The title of
this story is "a Great Bank Robbery"
1t contains the facts and inner history of
the greatest robbery of modern times,
nearly 100000. Some of the wealthiest
and brainiest people IN New York were
among the victims. Members of the po-
lice force were involved and the far-reach
ing consequences of this robbery furnish
startling and complicated situations that
make its story of intense interest.
Mr.. Hawthorne has constructed a
tale of interest more sustaining
and absorbing than any example
of Detective" literature either in
this country or in Europe. Indeed, moth
ing similar to this work has ever before
been produced anywhere; for, although
attired in the grab of fiction, it gives
picture of events which have actually
occurred within the last decade, and
which are now for the first time por-
trayed with the consent and authority
of the Chief of Detectives himself.
The style is rapid and direct, and
point after point is made with telling
power. Such a story cannot fail to
chieve a national popularity; no similar
opportunity of becoming acquainted with
the secrets of criminal and detective tran
actions has until now been offered to read
ers. With two such "collaborators' as
Inspector Byrnes and Mr. Julian Haw
thorne, the readers of the FREE PRESS
may expect the most stirring and inter
esting novel they have ever read. The
publication of the story will begin in tn,
Daily FREE PRESS June IS, and in tn,
Weekly of the following week. Send il
subscriptions at once and make sure o
getting the first of the story

THE MANSFIELD LAND SLIDE.
A Terrific Scene During its Progress
Miraculous Escape of Family.

Terrific Scene During Its Progress
Miraculous Escape of Family.
Later reports go to show that the land
slide on Mount Mansfield was of far
larger proportions than was first reported,
being about two miles long, from one to
six hundred feet wide and from 20 to 40
feet deep. An eye witness says that trees
from SO to so feet in length and from
one to three feet in diameter, were hurled
down the mountain side like corn cobs
Rocks weighing from one pound to 500
tons, were hurled like base balls, and all
this accumulation of timber, rocks and
debris is piled up at the base of the noun
tain, presenting Il strange appearance.
Trees three feet in diameter were broken
into pieces six and eight feet in length
with the bark all stripped, while others
so feet in length were shot into the woods
on the side of the slide 30 feet above where
the water now runs. The slide passed
within few rods of John Flynn's house
at the base, dividing and passing both sides
of it SO as to shut off escape entirely. The
damming up of some timber by the merest
accident thus saved "A family OF eight from
sudden and sure death. The slide is about
six miles from Cambridge and hundreds
of people are visiting the scene daily

This Jewish festival was instituted in
remembrance of the redemption of Israe!
from the bondage of Egypt. Il is virtu'
ally the birthday of the Jewish nation, a
festival of liberty, progress and enlight-
eminent and has the same Importance for
Jewish history as has the Fourth of July
for the history of this country.
The ceremonials Of this festival are
symbols of deliverance from sorrows in
Egypt. As feast of liberty it is re-
garded highly also by the reformed
Iraelites, who lay more stress upon
morality and good deeds than upon csre-
monies and dogmas.
In the Synagogue on Fort street the
services will begin at o'clock P. NJ. this
evening and at 10 O'Clock A. M. to-mor.
row morning. The musical part of the
exercises will be executed by fine
